Which mock tests are best for mba practice?

Question

Hi,

I want suggestion on which mock test should I follow for my mba mock test?

I have princeton review mock tests with me. Is that enough or should I buy any other tests as well?

Also, I have already exhausted both of the gmat prep tests. As now I need more mock tests to practice, which one should I buy? Manhattan or Gmat Prep test 3& 4? 
Or if you have any other suggestions for me?

Thank You!
Alizah.

If you are looking for mocks, GMAT prep test are the closest and way ahead of others.
You can take all the free mocks available on all other sites but the first purchase of mocks should be GMAT prep.
If you still want to buy some more, decide after you have taken the free mock on all sites. For quant, gmatclub would be the advice. Manhattan may be the next mock on your buy list but most others are almost similar so Princeton review if already purchased is ok

Hello  Alizah ,

You should go for the official mocks. Heard they are the closest to the real test. I am using official and Manhattan mocks (5 CATs came with books) and intend to purchase gmatclub's month later.

All the best!

Hey Alizah

Welcome to GMATClub!

The Princeton mocks are decent and have an algorithm which is very similar
to the GMATPrep mocks. However, I would advise you not to take more than
2 of these mocks. Buy the GMATPrep tests 3 and 4 without fail and work on
them. You could also buy the question pack which you can use in the form of
tests. Though these tests are not adaptive - the questions in this pack are the
closest you can get to the real exam. Last but not the least, you could look at
the following link for all the test links

Hope this helps you!

Hi Alizah,

In another post (here: https://gmatclub.com/forum/how-to-impro ... l#p2113873), you stated that you wanted to raise a 510 (which you scored on the Official GMAT) to 680+. That type of improvement will take a considerable amount of time and effort. It's also important to remember that a CAT is really a 'measuring device' - when used correctly, it will give you a realistic score and help define your strengths and weaknesses, but it will NOT help you to fix any of those weaknesses. To raise your scores, you have to learn the necessary Tactics and put in the proper practice and repetitions. The CAT will show you whether your studies are helping you to improve or not. As such, you really shouldn't take more than 1 FULL CAT per week (and at this point, you might only take one every 2 weeks until you get a bit closer to Test Day).

Before you purchase any additional CATs, it would be a good idea if you provided a bit more information on how you've studied so far - so you might want to answer the questions that were asked in that other post.

Hi Alizah,

Regarding practice exams, you should first start with the official exams from MBA.com. Since you have taken the two free ones, there are four more available for purchase.

That being said, for how long have you been preparing for the GMAT? When is your GMAT? What is your GMAT score goal?
